“Oh my gosh! Aka Sushi is divine! We had seaweed salad, tuna roll and salmon belly, and WOW! So fresh, super delicious! The service was wonderful. Very clean, actually immaculate . We foodies highly recommend Aka Sushi. You will not be disappointed.“

“My absolute favorite restaurant. Amazing flavors. Amazing service, amazing food. I’ve been going there since I was in high school, I have never had a single complaint.“

“My family went here for Mother’s Day. I wanted some good Chinese food that I haven’t had in a long time. All my favorite places have closed and I had a yet to find a place that is as good as what I was used to. I was not disappointed. I’ve finally found another great spot. I live in Front Royal currently but grew up in Manassas and moved all over NOVA. My faves were in Manassas and Gainesville until they closed. The best I’ve found was in Leesburg but still didn’t hit the mark for my preferences. This place hit every mark! I found my new favorite. Very impressed!“

“I've been coming here the past year and a half, and every single time it's consistently fantastic. Their katsu is the best in the DMV, and comparable to what I've had in Japan when I was there last year (personally recommend the fish katsu, and the chicken katsu). The service is always friendly, and the owner often comes out to check on you personally. I almost don't want this place to get too popular so that I always have an open table ready for me, but they really deserve to be a top spot in this area.“

“The food is always amazing and the staff is SO nice. Now that they have online ordering it makes pick up super easy! The best sushi in northern Virginia hands down“

“Best Poke bowl in the area. The food is always fresh and tasty, and the service is good and fast. The Poke combo bowl has become a weekly meal for my wife and me. The Kfood is also good!“

“My husband and I love Lil' Bowl. Tonight I decided to surprise my husband with a bento bowl which he has never had. They were so good. There was so much food, we had leftovers for tomorrow. Yum! I had the Pad Thai...very good. My husband had the chicken fried rice, and we both really enjoyed our Bento Boxes. We also really enjoyed the mango sticky rice for our dessert. If you like Thai and Japanese cuisine, you have to try Lil' Bowl. We highly recommend it.“

“The reviews for this place were so good that I got the salmon poke bowl. I usually don't like poke bowels, but I trust the people's reviews. They gave me the meal in less than 10m, I wanna say closer to 5m. The service was friendly and kind. This was around 3pm, so while everything was quiet. I was impressed they got my meal out so fast, 3pm is generally a lull-in-the-day for restaurants.

I inhaled everything. The miso on the side, and every speck of rice given to me (pictured). Do you know how good food has to be to eat every grain of rice with chopsticks? The sauce was so good, I thought about having a piece of bread to swipe against the bottom to really clean out the bowl. I had a religious experience inhaling everything. The salmon melted in my mouth, the sauce was excellent. They added just enough spice to contribute to the sauce flavor.

Anyways the poke bowl had some raw onions, zucchini(?), and avocado. I wish there was more rice, but that's just particular to me, most people will find the rice/meat ratio perfect. I ate somewhat awkwardly next to the owners/workers in the food court, but I hope it was gratifying for them to see me eat everything so fast.

Take this review with a grain of salt, as I was starving at the time, but 10/10 would come again. This restaurant is an unexpected gem inside of lotte.“

“We love Passion Fin and highly recommend the restaurant.“

“authentic Japanese, fuffly pancakes are amazing“

“I had a birthday dinner here with my whole family. We got our own table, personal service from the best chef, and since it was closing time, as many balloon animals as my toddler could hold. The food is always fantastic, but you come for the show.“

“I have been coming here for sushi. I know all the staff and they know me since my son was in college. Now my son is going to turn 30. I love everything about this restaurant, like family.
If you live around in Centreville you should come by and try.“

“the food is very yummy and it helps me to be healthy and i get to smile when i am in the restrauant“

“I had a totally different experience here. The staff has always been polite and helpful, and the food is fresh and tasty.

Also, it’s a bit misleading to say it was just soy sauce—there were multiple extra sauce requests like spicy mayo and chili sauce. It’s pretty normal for places to charge for additional sauces beyond the basics.

Overall, great service and solid food. Definitely worth trying for yourself!“

“Service it good, don't get me wrong. But I only wish there was someone talks Spanish so we could know more about the food and try out even more and the great food, so I really did love it. I always have to used Google to see what food is what so I can understand more. But it was amazing and love it! It clean from my two times that I have went there, super nicely, so if you love sushi 🍣 I would recommend it here, and I hope I would try where the chef is and cooking! I heard good comments so! I be more happy to go once more!“

“A group of friends and I arrived and ordered some food. It's a really good place to eat; we had different opinions, but honestly, the staff are excellent at serving customers.The food was excellent. I ordered sushi and a bento box, and I honestly have no complaints. Absolutely delicious and great food.“

“Service and food are excellent, coming back again and again.“

“Very fresh sushi and reasonable price. Can’t find any other place like this in the area. Very satisfying! I recommend sashimi salad bowl with spicy sauce (serves with). It’s Korean style poke bowl! Also miso soup comes with it. If you need more, it’s only $0.50. So good!“
